# Welcome to markdown++

## ✨ Key Features
- **Live Preview** with GitHub styling
- **Smart Import/Export** (MD, HTML, PDF)
- **Mermaid Diagrams** for visual documentation
- **LaTeX Math Support** for scientific notation
- **Emoji Support** 😄 👍 🎉

## 💻 Code with Syntax Highlighting
```javascript
  function renderMarkdown() {
    const markdown = markdownEditor.value;
    const html = marked.parse(markdown);
    const sanitizedHtml = DOMPurify.sanitize(html);
    markdownPreview.innerHTML = sanitizedHtml;
    
    // Syntax highlighting is handled automatically
    // during the parsing phase by the marked renderer.
    // Themes are applied instantly via CSS variables.
  }
```

## 🧮 Mathematical Expressions
Write complex formulas with LaTeX syntax:

Inline equation: $$E = mc^2$$

Display equations:
$$\\frac{\\partial f}{\\partial x} = \\lim_{h \\to 0} \\frac{f(x+h) - f(x)}{h}$$

$$\\sum_{i=1}^{n} i^2 = \\frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}{6}$$

## 📊 Mermaid Diagrams
Create powerful visualizations directly in markdown:

```mermaid
flowchart LR
    A[Start] --> B{Is it working?}
    B -->|Yes| C[Great!]
    B -->|No| D[Debug]
    C --> E[Deploy]
    D --> B
```

### Sequence Diagram Example
```mermaid
sequenceDiagram
    User->>Editor: Type markdown
    Editor->>Preview: Render content
    User->>Editor: Make changes
    Editor->>Preview: Update rendering
    User->>Export: Save as PDF
```

## 📋 Task Management
- [x] Create responsive layout
- [x] Implement live preview with GitHub styling
- [x] Add syntax highlighting for code blocks
- [x] Support math expressions with LaTeX
- [x] Enable mermaid diagrams

Mathematical notation: x<sup>2</sup>, e<sup>iπ</sup>

### Keyboard Keys

Press <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>B</kbd> for bold text.

### Abbreviations

<abbr title="Graphical User Interface">GUI</abbr>  
<abbr title="Application Programming Interface">API</abbr>

### Text Alignment

<div style="text-align: center">
Centered text for headings or important notices
